Hey
Good morning

How can I explain it? Scratchin' my brain 
How can ten hours feel like ten years? 
I cry ten men's tears as it disappears 
With the passionate atmosphere 
Took your glove as a souvenir 
Left the other on the pillow as I stroked your ear 
One last breath of your hair, stared for a second 
And then the doorway beckoned 
See, I'm a lover not a fighter 
So I didn't fight the fact that I more than liked ya 
Didn't matter we were under influence 
Made sense, this was more than lust 
I don't owe you, you don't owe me 
One night only, if only 
I could take you back and just show you off 
But I guess if I did that, the magic is lost 

Believe me, I wanna stay 
But I'm off and away 

Hey, good morning 
We watch the sun come up 
It's callin' 
I want another day with you 

You and that red dress, what a pairin'
I kept staring, we couldn't have said less 
Can't let my head rest, thinking about ya 
Really wanna look into your catwoman eyes 
Turn back time, 'cause it flies by 
You know, them Marty McFly vibes 
See, I can picture the bright lights 
Sights, the night skies and boats go by 
I don't why it happened so fast 
When I tried to speak your language, I'm happy you laughed 
Ha, 'cause I'm hardly a linguist 
Spoke through kisses 'cause you didn't speak English 
And it was hard to distinguish 
Love at first sight or holiday romance? 
Don't care, I was lost in the moment 
I really should've missed that flight 

Believe me I wanna stay 
But I'm goin' away 

Hey, good morning 
We watch the sun come up 
It's callin'
I want another day with you 
Hey, good morning 
We watch the sun come up 
It's callin'
I want just one more day with you 

I don't think I could be dreamin', I felt your touch 
No, I remember you breathin' when I woke up 
Now all I have are these memories I can't trust 
Just one day, won't be enough 

Hey, good morning 
We watch the sun come up 
It's callin' 
I want another day with you 
Hey, good morning 
We watch the sun come up 
It's callin' 
I want just one more day with you
